The Lockdown Diaries
Updates likely 9am NZDT with the over night European data. Just after 1pm NZDT with the New Zealand daily news and sometime in the evening.

Thought I was going to be late for work, luckily the daily PE I’ve been doing made the 5 meter dash from bed-desk an easy task. Much like when I was actually fit and the daily 9.5km commute to Invermay from 6am meant that 120-140k per week was straight forward!!!! Note: the run home was brutal when tired, may have used ‘phone a friend’ at times.
Napped, Planks, Kettle Bell Swings and the now standard 30 minute run filled up the afternoon and then dragging out a text book for some light reading.
There’s a chapter on exponential smoothing but it’s not relevant to COVID19. Manchild cooked up a delicous Laksa.
didn’t work straight off, bugger it.

Several requests for the plots to be interactive. Just a heads up, Plotly and ggiraph both destory the formatting of what are already ugly plots. I hate them, so you’re not getting them. In time I’ll get to letting you choose your own countries. Turns out no one is patient though. Can’t have much else to do at the moment. Lucky for me I am not very smart and everything takes a long time, like simple formating, google is my friend.
Home D going well today even if it is wet, still got some strength done and a run along with a solid day of pissing around with data. I don’t think I’ve ever seen so many people looking at so many variations of the same data. I have the prime office desk, adjacent to the fire.

Home Loop which means Flagstaff with Ann. Stunning day out. Not sure how many times I’ve done this loop over the years. It’s a lot though and when training is my test piece to see how fit I am. 13k with 600m climb, pb around 69 minutes but who knows, I’m older and senile now.
